Horror master filmmaker Ti West and A24 return with another chapter from the twisted world of X, in this X-traordinary follow-up to last year’s most acclaimed horror film. Star and co-writer, Mia Goth is perfectly demented reprising her role as pitchfork-wielding Hollywood hopeful Pearl in a gloriously gruesome and at times shockingly funny portrayal.
Trapped on her family’s isolated farm, Pearl must tend to her ailing father under the bitter and overbearing watch of her devout mother. Lusting for a glamorous life like she’s seen in the movies, Pearl’s ambitions, temptations, and repressions all collide, in the stunning, technicolour-inspired origin story of X’s iconic villain.
With a tour de force performance from Goth and West's blood-smattered homages to classic eras of film, PEARL is a horror fan's perfect nightmare.
